Gregory "Greg" Fields, better known by his in-game name IdrA (pronounced /ˈɪˌdrə/ I-dru) is a former professional StarCraft II and Brood War player who predominantly played as Terran in Brood War, but switched to Zerg for StarCraft II. After retiring to focus on school, he returned to former team Evil Geniuses for Heroes of the Storm.

In Starcraft II, IdrA was known for his focus on economy, production, and general army management, also known as macromanagement. This caused him to "hate" sub-optimal strategies that typically only work when the opponent does not expect them, also known as cheese.
